Discipline is not only good for children; it is necessary for their happiness and well-being. Discipline is as vital for healthy child development as nutritious food, physical and cognitive exercises, love, and other basic needs. Without discipline, children lack the tools necessary to navigate relationships and challenges in life such as self-discipline, respect for others, and the ability to cooperate with peers.

Discipline and punishment are not synonymous terms. While punishment for wrongdoing is an occasional element of discipline, discipline is the total training of the child. It not only teaches them the “don’ts” of life but, more importantly, teaches the “dos” of human responsibility.

Child discipline, when done correctly, is not about trying to control the child, but about showing her how to control her own behaviour. It is not about punishing a child for doing something wrong, but about setting clear parameters and consequences for breaking rules so that she learns how to discipline herself.

The school operates a school-wide rewards and correction matrix. Our rules and regulations are outlined in the Code of Conduct alongside corresponding corrective measures for defaulters. The rewards and correction matrix is designed to incorporate the principles of effective discipline and to promote the all-round character development of our students.

Students receive tiaras for positive behaviour and coloured warnings for negative behaviour. Warnings culminate in a red tag, at which point the student appears before the Disciplinary Committee. Parents are informed whenever a decision is taken.
